If so, try setting the phone so that it just uses 850MHz

And then see if you get a signal - I would suspect you won't, since the only phones I ever heard of this working on were some early production versions of the k790. If it doesn't work, then you can restore the original bandlock using

gdfswrite:000000AC09

I would be interested to hear the result, anyway..
Yeah, I gave it a shot last night. Bascially, with AT&T, my only choice is the 850mhz band. I did every possible combination and cannot get a signal. It works great on T-Mobile, and some places with AT&T. But I'm going to stick with that the 'w880i can't be patched to work on the 850 mhz band'.
